This is the entertainment industry! No tantrums or shouting allowed!

A few minutes later.

Director Cui sat by the fire grilling fish, constantly turning the twigs used to skewer the fish.

If you spin the page even a little slower, you'll get roasted by these devilish guests.

"Xiao Cui, don't slack off, work hard."

"As long as you can't do it to death, do it to death!"

"If you're going to be a beast of burden, you need to be prepared to be one. Do you even qualify as a beast of burden?"

Director Cui, who was being manipulated: "..."

Family members, who understands this? To be a variety show director and end up like this is truly despairing!

devil!

These devils!

Yunyue opened a packet of instant noodle seasoning and sprinkled it on the grilled fish, which then emitted an enticing aroma.

Everyone's stomachs started growling.

Director Cui was no exception.

When the grilled fish were being distributed, he thought he wouldn't get any as a "captive," but Wen Yao generously handed him the biggest one.

Director Cui was flattered and deeply moved: "Sister Yao, you're so kind..."

[One new member joins the Forget-Your-Roots track]

[Director Cui, have you forgotten? It was your little darling who lured you to this island!]

[Haha, I feel so sorry for Director Cui. He used to be a devil in the variety show world, but in front of the guests on "All-Star" he looks like a clear-eyed, foolish child.]

...

Wen Yao smiled sweetly: "Eat more, so you can get some work done later. You can't expect a horse to run if you don't feed it grass."

Director Cui was deeply moved and began to eat with gusto.

I must say, the fish I grill myself is just the best!

It's so much tastier than those pre-made dishes with no added ingredients and no natural ingredients!

After eating and drinking his fill, Director Cui let out a burp, and then noticed that everyone present was staring at him.

"...Just tell me what you need to do."

It's clear that Director Cui is quite adaptable; he's been captured and he's prepared to be one, not just taking advantage of the guests.

"Let's pay for the meal first." Wen Yao held out her hand. "Wild fish, grilled over pure charcoal, it's not unreasonable for a private restaurant in Beijing to charge you 288, is it?"

Gu Yan chimed in, "Yes, yes, and the water you're drinking was brought to you by Yunxing, nature's porter. Charging you 10 yuan is just the cost price!"

Director Cui was dumbfounded: "Isn't it enough that I work for you? Exchanging labor for food has been a tradition since ancient times!"

Wen Yao raised her index finger and shook it: "NONONO, the price is clearly marked, you have to pay."

"You're a rip-off! This is a rip-off!"

Director Cui stood up angrily.

Joshua stretched his arms, legs, and neck: "Director, how about a manly duel with me?"

“He’s trained in kickboxing, and I’ve also trained in boxing for a few days,” Jiang Jinghuai gestured a couple of times. “You can compete with me.”

Lin Xinwei smiled slightly, revealing her incredibly long manicured nails: "Although I don't possess any innate spiritual treasures, I have plenty of experience in the entertainment industry..."

Lu Amber winked and said, "Director Cui, I advise you to just go along with it."

Yun Xing cleared her throat: "Director, do you know what a dolphin's voice is? Imagine it being sung so close to your ear..."

Yunyue comforted him, "Director, don't be afraid. I recognize pain-relieving herbs and can brew some medicine for you."

Director Cui's cursing stopped abruptly, and he plopped back down in his seat!

[Hahaha, they're all villains!]

[These tonics are an abuse of the elderly!]

[Director Cui: On this deserted island, a bunch of kids bully me because I'm old and weak; how can I tolerate thieves right in front of me...]

...

"I have no money," Director Cui said defiantly. "You guys figure it out yourselves!"

Wen Yao found the nearest camera position, waved, and tilted her head innocently, asking:

Hey, is anyone home?

Two beeping sounds came from the loudspeaker, and a few seconds later, Director Cheng's calm and steady voice came through:

"Why don't you just kill him?"
